Premier League acca: Arsenal to win North London derby
Published:
The games are coming thick and fast now as we approach the end of the season, so after another busy midweek, Ladbrokes is back with its latest Premier League acca.
Our five-fold acca features picks from West Ham v Liverpool, Nottingham Forest v Man City, and of course, the weekend’s main event, Arsenal’s trip to North London rivals Tottenham.
The five-fold acca can be backed with Ladbrokes, at the time of writing, with odds of just shy of 18/1.
Premier League acca
West Ham v Liverpool
We kick things off in London, where we’re predicting that Liverpool will beat West Ham, despite now essentially being out of the title race.
Liverpool lost 2-0 to Everton this week, and it’s now quite unlikely that Jurgen Klopp will end his final season in charge of the Reds with his second Premier League title.
However, now that the pressure is off, we’re expecting Liverpool to get back to winning ways and pick up all three points against a West Ham side who lost 5-2 to Crystal Palace during their last outing.
Expect a few of Liverpool’s fringe players, such as Harvey Elliot and Ryan Gravenberch to feature here, just as they did against Fulham last week, which Liverpool won 3-1.
Man United v Burnley
Despite Burnley showing some fight as of late in the battle to stay in the Premier League, we aren’t expecting them to walk out of Old Trafford with a win this weekend, with a victory for Man United serving as the second-leg of our Premier League acca.
Man United beat Sheffield United in the week, although it wasn’t easy, and we’re expecting them to hand another lethal blow to one of the other sides fighting relegation this weekend, much to the chagrin of Vincent Kompany and his side.
Aston Villa v Chelsea
In the 8pm kickoff on Saturday evening, Aston Villa host Chelsea, and we’re predicting a draw between the two sides.
Villa are in top form right now, and are right in the mix to finish the season inside the Champions League places, whilst Mauricio Pochettino has it all on the line too, as he’s effectively fighting to keep his job as we head into the 2024/25 season, after a rather poor first campaign in charge of the Blues.
The games are coming thick and fast for Villa, who are also in the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League, and as such, we think the spoils will be shared between the two sides.
Tottenham v Arsenal
Tottenham are going to be more motivated than ever to beat Arsenal on Sunday, given that a loss for the Gunners would essentially rule them out of the title race. However, we don’t think it’s going to happen.
Arsenal are simply too good and too strong to not beat Spurs on Sunday. They’ll want to apply the pressure onto City, who beat Brighton this week, and remain at the top of the league heading into the final month of the season.
Nottingham Forest v Man City
Arsenal fans are hoping that they’ll get to watch their team beat Tottenham on Sunday, before immediately seeing Man City drop points, but we don’t think it’s going to happen.
For the final leg of our Premier League acca, we’re predicting that City beat Forest away from home on Sunday, applying the pressure back onto Arsenal and remaining hot on their heels in the title race.
Forest are going to be angry going into the game after feeling aggrieved with the refereeing performance in thgeir game against Everton last week, but we don’t think that’ll make too much of a difference when you consider the quality and ability of the players on City’s books.
Man City to beat Nottingham Forest - 3/10
You can back Ladbrokes’ latest Premier League acca, at the time of writing, with odds of 17.93/1.
